I haven’t posted for a while, but that’s because I’ve moved somewhere completely new in the last week or so and I’m still settling in. So good to be out of Ann Arbor.

So, the new town? Well, it’s a college town that got its name from a woman called Ann. It features kitschy restaurants and a cute nickname (”Naptown”).

Those Lazy Americans and Their Unneeded Medications

Consumerist has some great advice on how to stick it to Big Pharma and save on medications: stop taking them! You may like taking “medicines that have never worked” and “medicines that were never needed” just for fun, but if you just stopped, you’d save so much money!

We can only hope that insurance companies pick up on these revolutionary tactics too.
